Response from Lotto

Proposal D1:

Make a commitment to paying a living wage.

Lotto says it is not able to influence the development of a living wage because of its relatively small presence in its supplier factories.

Full response

"We do not have the power to establish the wage of a factory labourer, as this is not directly influenced by the retail price of our products. This subject should be approached between unions and factory workers. We would be happy to redefine our language and wording in regards to the living wage standard, however, we are not able to influence or cause the development of a wage ladder, including a living wage figure for workers in each country or region due to our limited power."
